The air in the bar is heavy, stained with the scent of stale liquor and lost hopes. Flickering neon paints the grimy windows in sickly hues, illuminating a crowd too absorbed in their own misery to notice you.

Kael lounges back, his fingers tapping a silent rhythm on the table, tracking your every slight movement. When you finally push your way out into the cold night, he doesn't follow. He simply turns his head toward the men flanking him, his voice a low, final decree: 'Find her.' The door swings shut on his command. And you remain utterly unaware that the hunt has already begun.
